Best Piper Preaching Gesture I’ve Seen in Years

In all the years of sitting under John Piper’s preaching I can’t remember one joke he purposely told to make an illustration. What I do remember are the many funny moments that came about naturally as a result of a mis-said word or some hand gesture. This has got to be one of my favorites [...]

Reach Kansas City

Another good friend and very gifted brother Kevin Cawley is planting a church in Kansas City. Check out the website and let anyone you know in Kansas City know. I’m excited to see what God has in store!

Anyone out there home roast and got any tips.
